M.H. Perrott Comparison of Strong and Weak Inversion for g m Assumption: I d is constant with only W varying Strong inversion formulation predicts ever increasing g m with reduced overdrive voltage-Reduced current density leads to reduced overdrive voltage and therefore higher g m Weak inversion formulation predicts that g m will hit a maximum value as current density is reduced
